Tongan Bible, Revised West Version
1I will sing of the loving devotion of the LORD forever; with my mouth I will proclaim Your faithfulness to all generations.
1Te u hiva ʻaki ʻae ngaahi ʻaloʻofa ʻa Sihova ʻo taʻengata: te u fakaʻilo ʻaki hoku ngutu ʻa hoʻo moʻoni ki he toʻutangata kotoa pē.
2For I have said, “Loving devotion is built up forever; in the heavens You establish Your faithfulness.”
2He naʻaku pehē, “ʻE fokotuʻumaʻu pē ʻa e ʻaloʻofa ʻo taʻengata: ko hoʻo moʻoni te ke fakatuʻumaʻu ʻi he ngaahi langi.”
3You said, “I have made a covenant with My chosen one, I have sworn to David My servant:
3Kuo u fai ʻae fuakava mo ʻeku fili, kuo u fuakava ki heʻeku tamaioʻeiki ko Tevita.
4‘I will establish your offspring forever and build up your throne for all generations.’” Selah
4“Te u fakatuʻumaʻu ho hako ʻo taʻengata, te u fokotuʻu ho puleʻanga ki he toʻutangata kotoa pē.” Sila.
5The heavens praise Your wonders, O LORD— Your faithfulness as well— in the assembly of the holy ones.
5Pea ʻe fakamālō ʻe he ngaahi langi ki hoʻo ngaahi ngāue fakaofo, ʻE Sihova: mo hoʻo moʻoni foki ʻi he fakataha ʻoe kau māʻoniʻoni.
6For who in the skies can compare with the LORD? Who among the heavenly beings is like the LORD?
6He ko hai ʻi he langi ʻe fakatatau ia kia Sihova? Ko hai ʻi he ngaahi foha ʻoe mālohi ʻe faʻa fakatatau kia Sihova?
7In the council of the holy ones, God is greatly feared, and awesome above all who surround Him.
7ʻOku totonu ke manavahē lahi ki he ʻOtua ʻi he fakataha ʻoe kau māʻoniʻoni, pea ke fakaʻapaʻapa ʻakinautolu kotoa pē ʻoku tuʻu takatakai kiate ia.
8O LORD God of Hosts, who is like You? O mighty LORD, Your faithfulness surrounds You.
8ʻE Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻoe ngaahi kautau, ko hai ʻoku tatau mo koe ko Sihova māfimafi? Pea ko hoʻo moʻoni ʻoku kāpui koe.
9You rule the raging sea; when its waves mount up, You still them.
9ʻOku ke puleʻi ʻae ngaue mālohi ʻoe tahi: ʻoka hou hono ngaahi peau, ʻoku ke fakatofukī ia.
10You crushed Rahab like a carcass; You scattered Your enemies with Your mighty arm.
10Kuo ke fesiʻi ʻa Lehapi ke lailai, ʻo hangē ha taha kuo tāmateʻi; kuo fakahēʻi ho ngaahi fili ʻaki ho nima mālohi.
11The heavens are Yours, and also the earth. The earth and its fullness You founded.
11ʻOku ʻoʻou ʻae ngaahi langi, pea ʻoku ʻoʻou foki mo e fonua: ko māmani mo hono fonu ʻo ia kuo ke fakatuʻumaʻu ia.
12North and south You created; Tabor and Hermon shout for joy at Your name.
12Kuo ke ngaohi ʻae potu tokelau mo e potu tonga: ko Tepoa mo Heamoni ʻe fiefia ʻi ho huafa.
13Mighty is Your arm; strong is Your hand. Your right hand is exalted.
13ʻOku ʻiate koe ʻae nima māfimafi ʻoku mālohi ho nima, pea māʻolunga ho nima toʻomataʻu.
14Righteousness and justice are the foundation of Your throne; loving devotion and faithfulness go before You.
14Ko e angatonu mo e fakamaau ko e tuʻunga ia ʻo ho ʻafioʻanga: ʻe muʻomuʻa ʻi ho ʻao ʻae ʻaloʻofa mo e moʻoni.
15Blessed are those who know the joyful sound, who walk, O LORD, in the light of Your presence.
15ʻOku monūʻia ʻae kakai ʻoku nau ʻiloʻi ʻae ongoongo fakafiefia: tenau ʻaʻeva, ʻE Sihova, ʻi he maama ʻo ho fofonga.
16They rejoice in Your name all day long, and in Your righteousness they exult.
16Te nau fiefia ʻi ho huafa ʻi he ʻaho kotoa pē: pea ʻi hoʻo māʻoniʻoni ʻe hakeakiʻi ai ʻakinautolu.
17For You are the glory of their strength, and by Your favor our horn is exalted.
17He ko koe ko e vikivikiʻanga ʻo honau mālohi: pea ʻi hoʻo ʻofa ʻe hiki ai ki ʻolunga honau nifo.
18Surely our shield belongs to the LORD, and our king to the Holy One of Israel.
18He ko homau hūfanga ʻa Sihova; pea ko e tokotaha māʻoniʻoni ʻo ʻIsileli ko homau tuʻi.
19You once spoke in a vision; to Your godly ones You said, “I have bestowed help on a warrior; I have exalted one chosen from the people.
19Pea naʻa ke toki folofola ʻi he meʻa ha mai ki hoʻo tokotaha māʻoniʻoni, ʻo pehē, “Kuo u hilifaki ʻae tokoni ki ha tokotaha ʻoku mālohi; kuo u fakahikihiki ʻae tokotaha kuo fili mei he kakai.
20I have found My servant David; with My sacred oil I have anointed him.
20Kuo u ʻiloʻi ʻa Tevita ko ʻeku tamaioʻeiki; pea kuo u tākai ʻaki ia ʻa ʻeku lolo māʻoniʻoni:
21My hand will sustain him; surely My arm will strengthen him.
21ʻE tuʻumaʻu hoku nima mo ia: ko hoku nima foki ʻe fakamālohiʻi ia.
22No enemy will exact tribute; no wicked man will oppress him.
22ʻE ʻikai fai fakamālohi kiate ia ʻe he fili; pe fakamamahiʻi ia ʻe he foha ʻoe angakovi.
23I will crush his foes before him and strike down those who hate him.
23Pea te u taaʻi hifo hono ngaahi fili ʻi hono ʻao, pea tautea ʻakinautolu ʻoku fehiʻa kiate ia.
24My faithfulness and loving devotion will be with him, and through My name his horn will be exalted.
24Ka ʻe ʻiate ia ʻa ʻeku moʻoni mo ʻeku ʻaloʻofa: pea ʻi hoku huafa ʻe hiki ki ʻolunga ai ʻa hono nifo.
25I will set his hand over the sea, and his right hand upon the rivers.
25Te u ʻai foki hono nima ki he tahi, mo hono nima toʻomataʻu ki he ngaahi vaitafe.
26He will call to Me, ‘You are my Father, my God, the Rock of my salvation.’
26ʻE tangi ia kiate au, ‘Ko koe ko ʻeku Tamai, ko hoku ʻOtua, mo e maka ʻo hoku fakamoʻui.’
27I will indeed appoint him as My firstborn, the highest of the kings of the earth.
27Pea te u ngaohi foki ia ko hoku ʻuluaki foha, ʻe māʻolunga lahi ia ʻi he ngaahi tuʻi ʻo māmani.
28I will forever preserve My loving devotion for him, and My covenant with him will stand fast.
28Te u tuku ʻeku ʻaloʻofa maʻana ʻo taʻengata, pea ʻe tuʻumaʻu ʻeku fuakava mo ia.
29I will establish his line forever, his throne as long as the heavens endure.
29Te u ngaohi foki hono hako kenau tolonga ʻo taʻengata, mo hono nofoʻa ʻo hangē ko e ngaahi ʻaho ʻoe langi.
30If his sons forsake My law and do not walk in My judgments,
30“Kapau ʻe liʻaki ʻeku akonaki ʻe heʻene fānau, ʻo ʻikai ʻaʻeva ʻi heʻeku ngaahi fakamaau;
31if they violate My statutes and fail to keep My commandments,
31Kapau tenau maumauʻi ʻeku ngaahi tuʻutuʻuni, pea ʻikai tauhi ʻeku ngaahi fekau;
32I will attend to their transgression with the rod, and to their iniquity with stripes.
32Pea te u toki ʻaʻahi ʻenau ngaahi talangataʻa ʻaki ʻae meʻa kini, mo ʻenau hia ʻaki ʻae ngaahi tā.
33But I will not withdraw My loving devotion from him, nor ever betray My faithfulness.
33Ka ʻe ʻikai te u hiki ʻaupito ʻeku manavaʻofa ʻiate ia, pe tuku taʻehoko ʻa ʻeku moʻoni.
34I will not violate My covenant or alter the utterance of My lips.
34ʻE ʻikai te u liʻaki ʻeku fuakava, pe fakakehe ʻae meʻa kuo ʻalu atu ʻi hoku loungutu.
35Once and for all I have sworn by My holiness— I will not lie to David—
35“Kuo u fuakava tuʻo taha ʻi heʻeku māʻoniʻoni ʻe ʻikai te u loi kia Tevita.
36his offspring shall endure forever, and his throne before Me like the sun,
36ʻE tolonga ʻene fānau ʻo taʻengata, mo hono nofoʻa ʻo hangē ko e laʻā ʻi hoku ʻao.
37like the moon, established forever, a faithful witness in the sky.” Selah
37ʻE fakatuʻumaʻu ia ke taʻengata ʻo hangē ko e māhina, pea hangē ko e fakamoʻoni ʻi he langi.” Sila.
38Now, however, You have spurned and rejected him; You are enraged by Your anointed one.
38Ka kuo liʻaki mo fākaliliʻa, mo ke houhau kiate ia naʻa ke pani.
39You have renounced the covenant with Your servant and sullied his crown in the dust.
39Kuo ke fakataʻeʻaongaʻi ʻae fuakava ʻa hoʻo tamaioʻeiki: kuo ke fakakoviʻi hono tatā ʻi hoʻo lī ia ki he kelekele.
40You have broken down all his walls; You have reduced his strongholds to rubble.
40Kuo ke maumauʻi hifo hono ngaahi ʻā kotoa pē; kuo ke fakaʻauha hono ngaahi potu mālohi.
41All who pass by plunder him; he has become a reproach to his neighbors.
41Ko kinautolu kotoa pē ʻoku ʻalu ʻi he hala ʻoku nau kaihaʻa ʻiate ia: ko e manukiʻanga ia ʻo hono ngaahi kaungāʻapi.
42You have exalted the right hand of his foes; You have made all his enemies rejoice.
42Kuo ke hiki hake ʻae nima toʻomataʻu ʻo hono ngaahi fili; kuo ke fakafiefiaʻi ʻa hono ngaahi fili kotoa pē.
43You have bent the edge of his sword and have not sustained him in battle.
43Kuo ke liliu foki ʻae mata ʻo ʻene heletā, pea ʻe ʻikai te ke ngaohi ia ke tuʻu ʻi he tau.
44You have ended his splendor and cast his throne to the ground.
44Kuo ke fakaʻosi hono nāunau, pea lī hono nofoʻa ki he kelekele.
45You have cut short the days of his youth; You have covered him with shame. Selah
45Kuo ke fakafuonounou ʻae ngaahi ʻaho ʻo ʻene talavou: kuo ke ʻufiʻufi ʻaki ia ʻae mā. Sila.
46How long, O LORD? Will You hide Yourself forever? Will Your wrath keep burning like fire?
46ʻE Sihova, ʻe fēfē hono fuoloa? Te ke fakafufū koe ʻo taʻengata? ʻE vela ho houhau ʻo hangē ko e afi?
47Remember the briefness of my lifespan! For what futility You have created all men!
47Manatu ki hono fuonounou ʻo ʻeku moʻui: ko e hā kuo ke ngaohi ʻae kakai kotoa pē ke taʻeʻaonga?
48What man can live and never see death? Can he deliver his soul from the power of Sheol? Selah
48Ko hai ʻae tangata ko ia ʻoku moʻui, pea ʻe ʻikai te ne mamata ki he mate? ʻE fakamoʻui ʻe ia ʻa hono laumālie mei he nima ʻoe faʻitoka? Sila.
49Where, O Lord, is Your loving devotion of old, which You faithfully swore to David?
49ʻE ʻEiki, ko e fē hoʻo ngaahi ʻaloʻofa ʻi muʻa, ʻaia naʻa ke fuakava ʻaki kia Tevita ʻi hoʻo moʻoni?
50Remember, O Lord, the reproach of Your servants, which I bear in my heart from so many people—
50Manatu, ʻE ʻEiki, ki he manukiʻi ʻo hoʻo kau tamaioʻeiki; mo ʻeku fua ʻi hoku fatafata ʻae manuki ʻae kakai mālohi kotoa pē;
51how Your enemies have taunted, O LORD, and have mocked every step of Your anointed one!
51ʻAia kuo manuki ʻaki ʻe ho ngaahi fili, ʻE Sihova; ʻaia kuo nau manuki ʻaki ʻae ngaahi ʻaluʻanga ʻo ia kuo ke pani.
52Blessed be the LORD forever! Amen and amen.
52Fakafetaʻi kia Sihova ʻo taʻengata. ʻEmeni, mo ʻEmeni.
